Law schools around the country are launching solo and small firm "incubators" — programs that help recent graduates establish solo practices while also encouraging free or low-cost legal services to underserved communities. The City University of New York (CUNY) School of Law was the first of its kind when it debuted in 2007; the school offers low-cost office space in midtown Manhattan and staff support for up to two years to a select number of graduates aiming to establish themselves as solos or launch small firms.
